I'm taking a break and playing Graham Nelson's Inform 7 demo game The Reliques of Tolti-Aph. It's actually great; I'm having a blast.

How is it in terms of cruelty, then? And logic? After "Curses" and "Jigsaw", both of which I gave up on, read the walkthrough for, and asked aloud, "How the hell was anyone supposed to think of that?", I haven't been dying to try anything else by him.

So, given access to the interactive fiction archives... can you recommend any "beginner" games? i.e. stuff that won't make me want to defenestrate my laptop because I'm forced to play "guess the parser" or "sorry, you didn't frob the frammistan 850 turns ago, and now you're screwed."
